Malik pressed the button which made the bus stop. They had just arrived
into the city where the Ancient Ruins lay.
"Ishizu told me there'd be an dig here but she never told me where it is...." Malik said looking around.
"Well let's ask around?" Mink said looking as people passed. Mink went up to a few people and asked. Luckily for her they did know and they told her.
Mink told them the news and they were off to East of the city where it wasn't too far. Jess could see a hug pyramid. "it's probably over there" She pointed out.
"Alright, I bet you guys anything Sage and Daniel are there, waiting for us" Allen said running over there.
It was an hour until they got to the giant pyramid. It was where the Pharaoh lay in his deep rest for over millions of years. As they came to the Pyramid Allen felt his Oracle glow. Then Mink and Jess.
"Weird... I think these things actually know we're close..." Mink said stopping to take a look at her Oracle.
"Wait is that Daniel over there?" Jess said pointing to the top of the stairs. As they ran further through the rough desert they saw clearer.
"It's Spinks...." Allen said stopping.
"Oh god not again!" Jess said stomping over to the bottom of the stairs. "Now what do you want?!" She yelled.
"I'm in for a little deal with you guys" Spinks smiled. He held up some kind of remote control. "This here... Is remotely controlled to 4 bombs within the temple."
Suddenly everyone had a sinking feeling. "Now hand over your Oracles or the dead guy gets it" He said as he held his finger over one button.
Mink, Jess, and Allen didn't even have a choice. "No!" Malik said stepping infront of them. "If we can't resort to this we can resort to something else"
"Heh I got it!" Allen said holding his Due Slider up. "A duel!"
"Don't worry I'll duel this sucker" Jess said walking up the stairs. "No let me do it!" Mink said pulling back on her shirt.
"No you already dueled that stupid Diego person!" Jess said smacking her hand off. "I'll do it!" Malik insisted.
"you can't!" Mink and Jess both yelled. Malik looked confused as they both argued. Then Allen saw Spinks' finger start to push the button.
"Wait!" Allen yelled. Spinks' stopped. "I'll duel you! You girls can go do something else but I'll duel you here and now!"
Allen slid his Duel Slider on and slid his deck into the holster which automatically put his life points up to 4000.
"Fine! This duel will be me against you only, winner take all!" Spinks said as he slid his Duel Slider on the slid his deck in the holster. "You don't even stand a chance against my ultimate armor deck"
"I'll crush your armor deck like I did back in Domino!" Allen yelled.
The duel field was on the stairs. Spinks at the top and Allen at the bottom. Malik, Mink, and Jess settled on the ledge to watch the duel.
The odds seemed unfair. Back at Domino city when it was the tag team duel, Mink practically had to fend for him.
"heh heh heh.... Paul was never able to defeat his armor deck... If I destroy it I'll gain bragging rights" Allen though.
Spinks took the first turn. "first I'll summon a monster in defense mode and set 2 cards face down and end my turn" He announced.
Allen drew his 6th card. "I'll summon Light Force Warrior (1300/1200)! Now attack!" He yelled. The warrior dove at the defense monster with it's light blade and crashed right through it.
"This is your first mistake!" Spinks said as his defense monster appeared. "Now my Crashman Virus will now infect your deck!"
Suddenly blue virus spores flew everywhere, infecting Allen's side of the field. "What does this Crashman Virus actually do?!" He asked.
Suddenly all the spores forced themselves together, forming a square cube. It was a dice. "You've attacked my Crashman Virus and for now on you must roll a dice. Whatever the die lands on all your monsters will lose the same amount of the number multiplied by 100!" Spinks yelled.
"Big mistake...." Mink said looking a bit concerned. "Are you sure we can rely on him?". Jess too was figuring the outcome of this duel.
Allen had already made a big mistake now. Allen ended his turn after he placed his monster in defense mode and set a card face down.
Spinks drew his next card. "Now! I'll activate Yield Tribute so I can summon Helmet of AMA in defense mode. Then I'll set a monster card in defense mode and end my turn." He announced. The dice wasn't important on Spinks' turn since he didn't have any monsters in attack mode.
Allen drew his next card. "Now! I'll sacrifice my Light Force Warrior to summon The Fiend Megacyber! (2200/1200)"
"Dice roll!" Spinks yelled. Suddenly the blue dice flew up, spinning in the air. Then it landed on a one. The blue virus spread around the Fiend Megacyber but it was nothing to Allen.
"Ha! Now Fiend Megacyber! Attack his Helmet!!" Allen yelled pointing. The warrior jumped at the face down card with a fist and ready to punch through it. "Now I activate Magic Arm Shield!" Spinks yelled. Suddenly a shield appeared infront of the helmet. An arm sprang out and grabbed Spinks' defense monster and The Fiend Megacyber punched right through it.
"You've attacked Dice Jar!" Spinks yelled.
Allen nearly fell down. "WHATS WITH THE DICE?!?!?" He yelled.
Spinks ignored him. "Now! Dice Roll!" He yelled. Suddenly the jar spat out a die. "Heh, When this card lands on a number the number multiplied by 100 will be depleted from your life points. But if it lands on a 6 you will lose 6000 life points! Instantly making me the winner!" Spinks said casually.
"You mean.... I'd lose..." Allen thought. His heart was pounding as the dice rolled and rolled.
Everyone else was also eager to know what would happen. The dice came to a sudden stop. It was on a side, then it finally fell. "Oh yeah 5!" Allen said doing a victory pose.
Allen's life points were reduced to 3500 but it was a small price to pay unless he wanted to get a 6 and lose this whole duel. Allen ended his turn after he placed a card face down.
Spinks drew his next card. "Now! I'll summon Torso of AMA in defense mode (0/0) I'll then set one more card face down and end my turn" Spinks said casually.
Allen drew his next card. "I'll summon Rocket Warrior into attack mode! (1500/1300) And then I'll activate Monster Reborn to bring back Light Force Warrior into attack mode! (1300/1200)"
"Dice Roll!" Spinks yelled as the dice flipped up. It then fell and came to a 3. "Now your monsters are once again infected!"
Allen's Fiend Megacyber grew down to 1900, his Light Force Warrior grew down to 1000, and his Rocket Warrior grew down to 1200.
"That still won't stop me! Now! Light Force Warrior! Attack his Helmet!" He yelled. The warrior jumped at the Helmet with it's light sword and sliced right through it.
"Revenge Sacrifice!" Spinks yelled as the card flipped up. Suddenly Light Force Warrior started to dissolve and break apart. "And now I'll summon Burgoth Hell Trap! (2400/1200) As long as this card is face up on the field we must summon a monster on everyone of our turns or there'll be a special price to pay". he smiled evilly.
"Ooo, that doesn't sound good...." Jess said.
Allen looked concerned as the giant demon looked over at him. Allen then ended his turn after he played one more card face down. "You forgot to place your monsters in defense mode!" Malik yelled. Allen looked back over to them and winked.
"Dice...." Spinks went on but then Allen interrupted. "Now! I'll activate Mystical Space Typhoon to destroy Crashman Virus!" Allen yelled.
Spinks growled as his helpful creature was destroyed by a swoop of a gust of wind. "Well it's still too bad for your Megacyber! Attack it now, Burgoth!" Spinks yelled.
"Your wrong! Now I reveal my two face down magic and trap cards! Skull Dice and Graceful Dice!" Allen yelled as the two cards flipped up. Both Demon and Angel swirled about and dropped their dice.
The dice fell and rolled. The red die which was the Skull Dice landed on 3 but the green dice which was the Graceful Dice landed on a 4. Burgoth Hell Trap's attack points were lowered down to 2100 and was still charging after The Fiend Megacyber. The Fiend Megacyber's attack points had increased to 2600. The Fiend Megacyber punched right through Burgoth Hell Trap and destroyed it and reducing Spinks' life points to 3500, tied up with Allen.
"See! Your not the only one with Dice up their sleeves!" Allen yelled as he pointed at Spinks. Spinks sneered and continued the duel.
The train Daniel and Sage were on was going slower than before. It'd be night time before they got to the Ancient Ruins.
